Racing Stripes with High Performance 2 mm Painted Vinyl

Paint coated stripes are an economical alternative to a full paint job. We bond basecoat-clearcoat automotive paint to durable outdoor vinyl, forming a single conformable film that installs cleanly and transforms your vehicle in hours.

Bold style, precision fit

Our paint coated film combines the depth and gloss of real paint with the flexibility of premium vinyl. At approximately 2 mm, the film lays smooth over curves and body lines with uniform color and crisp edges.

Color & Finish

Solid colors, metallics, pearls, and satin or gloss top coats to match your theme from classic to modern.

Clean Edges

Masking and knife-less techniques deliver consistent gaps, pinstripes, and border reveals without cutting on paint.

OEM-friendly

Surface-safe adhesives and proper prep help protect factory clearcoat and enable future removal if desired.
